Adding DWC nutrients during the week?
Echo_Basestarted grow question 4 years ago
I flush & add nutrients once per week, and I can't seem to find specific info on adding additional nutrients during the week. Say I start with my basic ratio for the week, and by mid-week, the water is lower. Do I use the same ratio for 1 more gallon or just one specific nute?

I would assume the same ratio but check your waters ppm after adding. 🤘😤

It could be that the plants are using the food, or evaporation, or just drinking the water and concentrating the remaining nutes to a higher than intended amount ( that would not be great ), so start by diluting to be safe when its 30% below the initial line roughly.
But, the next step would be to figure out what it was out of those, by dropping a ppm meter into the water.
If you have your target PPM ( or EC ), then you will be able to discern after you top it off whether it has dropped in the nutrient density, and thus discern whether to bump them up to the intended levels.
Make sense?

Calendário PlagronOlá, seu eu seguir este calendário, vou obter uns bons resultados ?
As minhas últimas colheitas foram as primeiras, não estou triste, as flores saíram lindas e saborosas.
Mas os buds não eras duros e densos, usei fertilizantes biobizz.
Mas nenhum supemento NPK, foi o que faltou?

I am only growing one plant at this time and would like to know some good concepts and actions for storing water, keeping the PH levels at a workable level, and best feedings. Would 5 gallon buckets with air machine and PH kit be sufficient, Please your thoughts.Feeding. Other

Buds are nice and dense now, and the plant is starting to take up less water, my questions is should I keep on using nutrients and should I start to just use plain water? I have about 25 days to go before harvest (based on the info about the stain that say 70-75 days floweringWeek 8

WateringPlants seem to respond oddly to watering…. It’s like they look like they want water, but then when they get it, they act like they don’t want it… super weird. Maybe since I’m new I don’t have the knack for knowing how much to give them ¯_(ツ)_/¯Week 3

Ph drop after res changePh dropped hard 24 hr after res change @ 60%. Had changed 1 week prior due to high ec + slowly dropping ph and added another air stone. Turned off the air stone for an hour, no change so likely not acid rain situation. Ph up’d, plant never showed signs of being unhappy. Thoughts?
